Hi Folks
If you're shooting for TV, I recommend the Schneider 10mm T2, built for the Arri. You can pick one up quite cheap, and it *almost* covers super16. For blowup, it probably wouldn't be any good (I wouldn't risk it anyhow), but on TK copies, I've never seen any vignetting.
I also use the Kinoptic 5.7, but only because I accidentally bought one a couple of years ago!
Kind Regards
Alex

The 16mm Camera Book lists a hierarchy of sharpness
1. Schneider at the bottom
2. Cooke Kinetal, better, but not good enough for sharpness
3. Zeiss Superspeeds -- the best, although some cameramen dislike them because of flare.
The original commentary from Popular or Modern Photography is similar.
